Founded With A Purpose

Emerald Broadband was founded in the spring of 2016 with two goals in mind. To bridge the digital divide in Lane County by providing world class internet service to underserved communities and to provide that service at the lowest possible cost to its customers.

Registered as a public benefit corporation, Emerald Broadband exists to service the needs of its customers without placing a priority on profit and affluence. When making decisions as a company, we routinely ask ourselves two questions, “Are we providing the best service possible?” and, “Is this the right thing to do?”. If we can’t answer those questions with a loud and resounding “Yes!”, then we owe it to our customers to rethink how we provide our service to them.

As technology becomes an ever increasing presence in our everyday lives, we strive to meet a special share of the challenges that many of our customers face every single day. By providing to them an enterprise level service we can help support the socioeconomic growth that comes with possessing a strong presence on the internet.
